Understand your home’s condition before it goes on the market. Identify visible concerns, plan repairs, and prepare for conversations with prospective buyers.
A pre-listing inspection gives you an independent assessment of your home’s visible and accessible condition before buyers begin their inspections.
With findings in hand, you have time to consider repairs, obtain contractor estimates, and discuss your next steps with your real estate professional.
ParallaxAZ documents observed concerns with photos and clear explanations so you can prepare for the selling process with better information.
Learning about a concern before listing gives you more time to decide how to address it.
A pre-listing inspection can help you:
We inspect visible and accessible systems and components, including the areas listed below. The scope depends on the property’s features, accessibility, and conditions at the time of inspection.
Your report documents observed concerns, inspection limitations, and components that could not be evaluated. Concealed conditions may remain undetected.
When appropriate, ParallaxAZ uses drone imagery and thermal imaging to support the inspection.
Drone imagery can help document visible roof conditions when walking the roof is unsafe or access is restricted. ParallaxAZ inspectors who operate drones hold FAA Remote Pilot Certificates under Part 107. Flights depend on site permission, weather, airspace restrictions, and operating conditions.
Thermal imaging reveals surface temperature patterns that may warrant closer evaluation, including possible moisture concerns or insulation irregularities. It does not see through walls or diagnose a defect by itself.
Your report explains relevant findings and any inspection limitations.
Your digital report includes photos, descriptions of observed concerns, and recommendations for maintenance, repair, monitoring, or further evaluation.
We use Spectora to organize findings so you can review them easily and discuss them with your real estate professional.
Our goal is to deliver your completed report within 24 hours after the inspection.
You can contact us with questions about the findings as you plan your next steps before listing.
Review your inspection report with your real estate professional before listing. They can help you consider how the findings relate to your selling plans and direct you to appropriate guidance about disclosures.
ParallaxAZ documents the home’s observed condition. We do not determine your disclosure obligations or provide legal advice.
If your home has a pool or spa, an additional inspection can document visible equipment, component, and safety concerns before listing.
A sewer scope inspection uses a specialized camera to examine accessible portions of the sewer line for visible concerns such as roots, obstructions, cracks, or damaged sections.
If you need a termite inspection, contact us to discuss availability and arrangements.
Ask about these services when scheduling so we can confirm the scope and pricing.
I’m Chad Smith, owner of ParallaxAZ, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, airline pilot, and former flight paramedic and firefighter.
My background taught me to prepare carefully, follow a consistent process, and explain important information clearly.
I bring that approach to your inspection, documenting observed concerns and helping you understand the findings before you put your home on the market.
Because I inspect every home like my family was buying it.
Schedule early enough to review the report, obtain any recommended specialist evaluations or contractor estimates, and complete work you choose to address before listing.
Findings may involve maintenance, monitoring, repair, or further evaluation. We explain the observed concerns so you can discuss priorities and next steps with your real estate professional.
Discuss report sharing and disclosure questions with your real estate professional or a qualified attorney. ParallaxAZ can explain inspection findings but does not advise on disclosure obligations.
A pre-listing inspection helps you prepare for selling. Prospective buyers may still arrange an independent inspection, which can produce different findings because conditions, access, and inspection scopes may differ.
Pricing depends on the home’s size, features, and selected services. Contact us with the property address for a quote.
